It is really not easy trying to juggle taking care of newborn, pumping/latching, engorgement, mil, cl etc. So mummies, do try to stay positive and look at the bright side of things as much as possible. Also to communicate with hubby more and tell hubby that it is really very tiring with so much going on and it is important to have their support esp where mil is concerned.
Personally, I hv learnt to just do what I am able to manage, not be too hard on myself, rest more when possible and be positive so that milk supply will improve. Whatever I am not happy about, I will mention directly to my mum or mil who are doing confinement for me - citing that doctor / info stated on books etc if possible or else I will just do it myself so things get done how I like it to be. I will leave #1 to my hubby to take care while I settle everything for baby #2.
Jia you all mummies!
